I think OS4 CAN be run on MAC MINI (USABLE)

I knew all of you were closet pirates.  :lol:

@TheMagicM
Nope, got a boxed copy of OS4 sitting in a drawer upstairs :-)

yea but not a boxed copy of Amiga Moana software ;-)   no big deal, I'm just giving you a hard time.  I'm no angel.

Hey guys, what about disk partitioning schemes causing the errors?
What partition scheme does your MAC MINI use? Or even hard disk model or keyboard...
What's the next thing we should share here?

Hopefully Moana is enough for someone to get it working. Then there's little AInc can do - it's already out there!

Well, my question was how do we get "it", Moana legally from Hyperion/AOS4 Team, not AOS4 itself.  Also, I was under the impression that the few people that are attempting to get AOS4 running on their MacMini's are using and can only use their original AOS4 CD's from their A-1 computers, not the AmigaOS4 for Classic Amigas that can currently be purchased.

I would be one of the first in line to buy AOS4 if it would run on any G4 or faster Mac hardware, or any commonly available x86 hardware too.

Does anyone have an e-mail address for Andrea Vallinotto?

If so, please PM me

Please morphos have an official support isnt like moana, developers will make morphos runs in all macminis.

Let's dream bigger and hope for MorphOS running on ALL PPC Macs!  Not just the Mac Mini's. :-D

Just getting MorphOS to run on single core G4 power macs would make MorphOS much more accessible. You can get used early G4 power Macs for under $100 now making them very cheap hardware.

This hardware under 100eur becomes up to 200 or 300eur if its done for amiga people

Right but if it MorphOS ran on old G4 Power Macs we wouldn't be dealing with Amiga hardware.

Recently i acquired 1gb module for my mini and now it works!!!. I only had 256 mb.
My mini is 1.42ghz with a 32mb radeon and works with the two loaders, standard and ati_safe.

 :-D  :pint:

[gaula92]

Wow! What RAM brand did you get? I've 1GB on my mini G4 (Kingston) , wich is 1.42Ghz too, but I just can't make it work, ATI or SAFE doesn't make much difference...

Did you actually install the system?

[_ThEcRoW]

The ram is a hynix module, the same brand as the one that came with the mini. As for the installation, i'm already investigating the partitions and searching for more info on the net.
I will keep you informed.

Hey The_Crow, any news?
By the way, since you are spanish as I am, where did you get your new shiny RAM and what's the exact model? Well, if you can tell me the speed, it will be enough. I am in Madrid at the moment so maybe I'll get it here...

[kickstart]

Memory is not the problem, i have 1gb kingstom at the proper speed for mac mini g4 and moana gets the colour corrupted screen, i dont know why os4 runs on your macmini, by the way... you talk about partitions, what partitions?

MorphOS for the Mini? It's been a while since we heard of it. I said it other times: I don't believe it's gonna be released. Amiga OS4 for the mini, even in an "alternative" way seems a good alternative to me.

TheCrow, what hard disk/partitions do you have? C'mon man, give us some more info...
